Nice guitar, great sound, poor set up

Everything about the guitar fits my needs, only issue was set up. Out of the box the intonation was way out, had to take it to my tech to get proper set up.

Very good gutar

What best in this guitar — It looks fantastic!!!

Binding is white and not perfect strait, here and there are some paint job unperfections, but it's okay.

Wilkinson pickups are not bad, but after changing them to deusenbergs sound get more clarity.

Nutt was setted to low on 4 and 5 strings,so i replace it and after some fret job action on 12 fret is from 1.3 (1string) to 1.7mm(6 string).

Beautiful guitar at a beautiful price

I've always wanted a guitar in this style, but since I'm not making any money from music, I couldn't justify the cost. That made this guitar the perfect option.

It looks beautiful - the build quality is great, no issues that I can see other than some rough edges inside the f-holes but you can only see that if you really look from a few inches away. Guitar stays in tune extremely well.

The coil split feature is really nice and adds additional sound options.

One thing I have noticed is that the sustain seems to be really short when plugged in - the audio cuts off after a few seconds. I assume that's a pick-up issue but I've never seen that before on a guitar.

Besides that, this is a great guitar and well worth the cost.

Excellent Axe

Very good and versatile guitar. I was worried about the action as I had seen some bad comments on this topic but it was good out of the box. playability is very nice and smooth. No problems with sharp frets or bad finish. However the inner painting in the f - holes could be better as it looks unfinished. The inlays are not perfectly centered in the width of the neck, apart from that very happy with the product.

The color is awesome.

4.5 so close to 5 star

Pros

.Finish is fantastic, the book match is dead center and there are no over sanding areas or bubbling in the clear coat.

.tuners are good quality and hold tune well.

.light weight (7 Lbs) and feels comfortable up against your body.

Cons

.No back panel makes it difficult to switch out pickups.

.slight buzz even after adjustment and setting the action and bow/ relief. Suspect uneven frets.

.The inlays are sloppy and don't look professional.

Used for music recording and performance
